I wouldn't really say that there's any concrete way of figuring "tiers" out, although rush figures would be one way for the sororities. But then, I can think of many chapters on this campus who would rank lower or higher than their return rates suggest simply because the way rushees view the groups is a little different from the way the rest of campus does.

I would say at UK most people take "tiers" as a huge factor. When I was COB'ing last year, I had a lot of people tell me "I was to good for that sorority" or "I wasn't skinny enough for that sorority". Which happens at a lot of campus's. But I actually had a girl set me down and say, "this is who you prolly want to go with - these should be your top 3, along with these - forget this(these) group(s) and dont' even think about this group".
So I think this thread is really helpful, especially to girls like me who have had this "tier" explained to them.
